Norton 61463610599 320 Grit Silicon Carbide Dressing Stick

Product Description

The NORTON 61463610599 is a square dressing stick designed for truing and dressing superabrasive grinding wheels. Made from silicon carbide abrasive with a vitrified bond, this stick restores wheel geometry and open-up the cutting face after glazing or loading. At 320 grit, it falls into the extra fine grade range, making it well-suited for precision dressing work where minimal stock removal from the wheel is needed. The vitrified bond provides a rigid, free-cutting structure that holds the silicon carbide grains firmly during contact. Grinding machine operators and tool room technicians use this stick as a standard part of wheel maintenance on surface, cylindrical, and bench grinders.

This dressing stick is used primarily for conditioning superabrasive wheels, including CBN and diamond wheel types, in both production and tool room environments. The square cross-section provides four usable edges, allowing the stick to be rotated as each edge wears. It is suited for light-duty dressing tasks on precision grinding equipment where controlled, consistent wheel face preparation is required. The extra fine grit is appropriate when the goal is a smooth wheel face finish rather than aggressive reshaping.

Key Features

• 320 grit extra fine grade for precision dressing and light wheel face restoration
• Silicon carbide abrasive material delivers effective cutting action on superabrasive wheel bonds
• Vitrified bond construction provides rigidity and consistent grain exposure
• Square stick shape offers four working edges for extended service life
• 6 inch length gives adequate grip and material volume for repeated use

Compatibility

Designed for use on superabrasive wheels including CBN and diamond grinding wheels in tool room and production grinding applications.

Installation Notes

Dressing sticks are used by grinding machine operators and tool room technicians. Power down and come to a full stop before inspecting wheel condition. During dressing, use appropriate eye protection and follow the grinding machine manufacturer's feed and speed guidelines. Do not apply excessive pressure against the wheel face, as this can cause uneven dressing or damage to the stick.
